Why not host all non core haiku related stuff from a sub-domain like usergroups.haiku-os.org where can be stated that is is not a official Channel. It would only be haiku-hosted to give the public a "startingpoint" for haiku related ranting/discussions/etc like a userforum or the like.

We want to give users a good impression ("nice, > but needs more polish..."), so they come back more often. At least we're pretty close to deliver a worthwhile experience for the interested, there is no need to rush things. Bye, Axel.
